Kasapa Telecom denies suing Bentsi-Enchill and Co.

Accra, May 6, GNA - The Management of Kasapa Telecom Limited on Thursday said the Company has not filed any lawsuit against Bentsi-Enchill and Co as reported in sections of the media on May 4, 2010.

The story which was published in the May 4, 2010 edition of the Ghanaian Chronicle, had the headline "Kasapa sues Bentsi-Enchill & Co. for fraud.After transferring Kludjeson's shares without authority". A statement in Accra signed by Mr. Robert Palitz, Consultant for Kasapa, said the company "wishes to emphatically state that it is not a party to that suit filed by Kludjeson International Limited (KIL)". "Kasapa has not filed any action against Bentsi-Enchill Letsa & Ankomah or against any of the other defendants listed in that suit," it said. The statement said the listing of Celltel Limited (Kasapa's former name) as the second Plaintiff in that suit was done without the knowledge or consent of any Kasapa director or official.

It noted that K-SAN, the Law Firm which was representing KIL in the case and said to represent Kasapa, was doing so without any instruction from Kasapa.

"KIL owns no shares in Kasapa Telecom Limited, directly or indirectly, and KIL's claims to the contrary are unsupported by any fact, law, or court ruling," the statement said.
